Loula Bounouar

I'm Loula, a 24 years old belgo-morrocan woman. I currently live in Brussels where I work in a bookshop. Before settling here, I've moved around quite a bit. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Arts & Culture and a Master's degree in Publishing (print and digital). I'm passionate about books and literature and hope that I can share that passion with all of our dear TEMA readers. I find that literature is a great learning tool and that, through stories, we can get out of ourselves for a short period of time and experience the life of somebody else.

Name:  Loula Bounouar
Year of birth: 1997
